Tuesday of the fair.

Marvin and I enjoyed spending time at the stock dog show at Mathewson Center.  We have a special place in our hearts for border collies, in particular.  :)  And we enjoy seeing Brenda's friend, Robin, in the competition each year.

We had lunch again at the Pork Place.  Marvin got his BLT and this time, I chose a pulled pork sandwich.

Then we headed to the Coliseum to meet Gwen and see Jared show his steer.


I love the Coliseum

Gwen and Laura with our fans - it was HOT!

We moseyed back toward Mathewson Center.  It is nice when the fair isn't quite so hectic.

back to Mathewson for more stock dog trials

Zach P and his girlfriend came to the fair and were kind enough to bring me my box from B&H photo  containing the eclipse lenses for the cameras that were delivered after we had left for the fair.

Marvin and I rode a tram around the entire fairgrounds.  That is something we enjoy doing on a slower day when we don't feel like we are taking a space from others needing to sit on the tram.  That evening we attended the Hotel California show at Touchstone Energy Stage.  I love this group!  Jonathan and Zack went to the Granger Smith concert.

I asked Jonathan to send me some photos from the concert.
He sent me this one...

...and this one.  ;)

The beef house looks so pretty at night.
